About
Edmodo, a popular K-12 education technology platform, is permanently shutting down as of late August 2022, effectively laying off its entire workforce. The company, which had tens of millions of users and was acquired by China-based NetDragon Websoft in 2018, cited an inability to maintain a viable service level. Founded in 2008, Edmodo was a global tool recommended by UNESCO during the pandemic, but it struggled as a standalone free service. The closure raises significant data privacy concerns, though the company has committed to destroying user data. This marks the end of a once-prominent competitor to platforms like Google Classroom.
